Application of surfactant-modified zeolite-activated carbons as adsorbents to a semi-batch operation
(2018)Modified zeolite-activated carbons (H-CL-CB1, H-CL-CB2) in a proportion of 50/50 w/w and 20/80 w/w were used for methylene blue removal from aqueous solutions under a semi-batch operation. Dye adsorption kinetic analysis ... -
Aqueous phase reforming (APR) of glycerol over platinum supported on Al2O3 catalyst
(2016)The glycerol's APR reaction over 5% Pt/Al2O3 catalyst for H2 production in a batch reactor is investigated in the present work. The effect of the operating parameters, such as the: i) reaction time, ii) operating temperature, ... -
Aqueous Solubility Enhancement for Bioassays of Insoluble Inhibitors and QSPR Analysis: A TNF-α Study
(2018)The aim of this study is to improve the aqueous solubility of a group of compounds without interfering with their bioassay as well as to create a relevant prediction model. A series of 55 potential small-molecule inhibitors ... -
Dissolved oxygen technologies as a novel strategy for non-healing wounds: A critical review
(2021)Non-healing wounds are steadily becoming a global-health issue. Prolonged hypoxia propagates wound chronicity; yet, oxygenating treatments are considered inadequate to date. Dissolved oxygen (DO) in aqueous solutions ... -
Efficient carbon dioxide electroreduction over rationally designed heterogeneous Ag2S-Au nanocomposites
(2022)Electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR) is regarded as an effective strategy to store abundant renewable energy and build a carbon neutral society. Gold (Au) and silver (Ag)-based catalysts for the effective ... -
High-efficiency Extraction of Phenolics from Wheat Waste Biomass (Bran) by Combining Deep Eutectic Solvent, Ultrasound-assisted Pretreatment and Thermal Treatment
(2020)The aim of this study was the examination of the effect of ultrasonication pretreatment and thermal treatment of soft wheat bran (SWB) with a novel acidic, tertiary deep eutectic solvent, composed of glycerol/citric ... -
In silico study of levodopa in hydrated lipid bilayers at the atomistic level
(2021)This article presents atomistic molecular dynamics and umbrella sampling simulations of levodopa at various concentrations in hydrated cholesterol-free 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) and cholesterol-containing ... -
Molecular simulations of fluoxetine in hydrated lipid bilayers, as well as in aqueous solutions containing β-cyclodextrin
(2022)Fluoxetine, which is a well-known antidepressant drug, is studied in hydrated cholesterol-free and cholesterol-containing lipid bilayers through unbiased and biased atomistic molecular dynamics simulations. The latter are ... -
Potato biodiversity: A linear discriminant analysis on the nutritional and physicochemical composition of fifty genotypes
(2021)Fifty potato genotypes from twenty-four different countries of origin, four different flesh colours (yellow, purple, red and marble) and different cultivation types (Andean accessions, landraces, breeder lines and cultivated ... -
Remediation of Cd and Cu contaminated water and soil using novel nanomaterials derived from sugar beet processing- and clay brick factory-solid wastes
(2022)Producing nanomaterials from hazardous wastes for water and soil treatment is of great concern. Here, we produced and fully characterized two novel nanomaterials from sugar beet processing (SBR)- and brick factory-residuals ... -
Remediation of Polluted with Chromium Waters and Soils Cultivated with Wheat (Triticum durum) Using Zeolites Modified with Iron Oxide
(2016)The present study examines the efficiency of soil amendments regarding the retention of chromate ions, from water and cultivated soil with wheat (Triticum durum). The minerals and iron oxides that have been used were ... -
Vacuum microwave-assisted aqueous extraction of polyphenolic compounds from avocado (Persea americana) solid waste
(2021)The extraction efficacy of avocado fruit peels (AP) and seeds (AS) with the use of vacuum microwave-assisted aqueous extraction (VMAAE) was optimized in this study, with regard to extract’s total phenolic content (TPC), ...
